Mixian specializes in Yunnan rice noodles which I don't eat so I ordered other dishes.
There were quite a lot of non noodle options.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Fried wontons:
The meat filling was fresh but the wontons were too salty.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Chilled mung bean and chicken in sesame sauce:
This chilled dish was quite nice because the sesame sauce was not too heavy or sweet.
The shredded chicken was tender and delicious.

[Review 4493] Time for salad @ Cafe&Meal MUJI
27/07/2015
Cafe&Meal MUJI

G/F, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road Central, Wan Chai
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/time-for-salad-e2473089
Had a craving for salad so went here for the potato salad.
Before I went in, I asked the girl at the counter if I could get a mix or you had to get two salads and she seemed to say that it was possible to get a mixed salad.
When I sat down, the waiter at the restaurant said it wasn't possible so it might have been a misunderstanding at the beginning or the restaurant staff didn't know you could get a mix.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Potato salad :
The potato salad was divine with pieces of spinach and bacon in it and the potatoes had a strong potato taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Sargassum salad:
The salad was nice at first but then the sesame dressing lingered and it got a bit sickly.

[Review 4492] Second Hawaiian joint in HK @ Aloha
27/07/2015
Aloha
鰂魚涌海光街20號地舖
G/F, 20 Hoi Kwong Street, Quarry Bay
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/second-hawaiian-joint-in-hk-e2473087
The first time I tried Hawaiian POKE was at Pololi in Central, I wasn't quite sure if it would become popular with the locals but HK'ers love sushi and sashimi bowls.
POKE is typically raw tuna (ahi) cubes marinated with sea salt, a small amount of soy sauce, inamona (roasted crushed candlenut), sesame oil, limu seaweed, and chopped chili pepper.
It is encouraging to see a similar shop in Quarry Bay because Quarry Bay has more people than eateries so every restaurant is packed at lunch.
At Aloha, they have more options such as Quinoa and brown rice.
From the choices, they use mostly yoghurts and coconut dressings so they all taste similar and creamy.
The wasabi one also tasted creamy and the wasabi was not strong enough.
I got the tofu because the fish wasn't that interesting and they all tasted really similar.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Tofu avocado:
The tofu had a creamy taste and the lime was not strong enough.
There were big chunks of tofu which were chewy, spongy and rubbery but didn't have much taste and it got sickly after I had a lot of tofu.

To be honest I was here for the gimmick, it was the pudding on dry ice.
There were new items so tried them as well.
The White Chili Jigoku Ramen seems interesting.

Good Shanghai joint in Yuen Long
2015-07-27 959 瀏覽
I don't normally trek into Yuen Long but went here because I heard the clams were good and they also serve good Shanghainese food.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Clams in Huadiao wine:
花雕醉蜆 $68
As expected, these clams were delicious, you could see how dark they were which meant that the clams have been soaked in wine for some time.
The clams were really tasty with a fragrant wine taste and the wine was not too overpowering that you could still taste the clams as well.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Platter:
五福併盤$168
0 讚好
The platter consisted of meat terrine, jellyfish, beef shin, braised gluten and chicken with bean sheets pasta in sesame sauce.
My favourites were the jellyfish and bean sheets pasta because the sesame sauce was light and not too overpowering.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Emperor fried rice:
皇帝炒飯 $88
0 讚好
The fried rice was nicely done, the grains or rice were not stuck together and not too oily with lots of seafood in it.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Peking duck:
北京烤鴨$328
There was quite a lot of duck meat sliced from the plump duck which is paired with the pancakes, sauce, cucumbers and spring onions.
The pancakes were a bit too thick for my liking but the duck was meaty.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Chinese ham, lotus seeds in honey:
蜜汁火腿蓮子 ($168)
Basically you put the ham, crispy sheets in between the steamed bun to eat.
The sweetness of the ham and crispy bits paired together nicely.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Shanghai dumplings:
As you can see, there is so much broth in the dumplings and the meat filling inside the dumpling is fresh swishing round in a rich and sweet broth.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
If I am in Yuen Long again, I will come here again for the clams and the food comes fast.

Came here randomly because I haven't tried this place.
It was good that they had an English menu which serves MICED MEAT, SOFE DRINK and STATY BEEF.
I was deciding between the egg and tomato and the fried egg and luncheon meat.
In the end I got the luncheon meat.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
soup:
The soup was just the usual Chinese broth.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
fried egg and luncheon meat:
It was good that they give you the soy sauce separately so you can decide how much you want to add but the thing that let it down was the burst egg yolk and the rice was too soggy.
The luncheon meat was soft and tasteless but the egg was quite nice especially the egg white because it was delicate and fragrant.

I am so glad Chip In Fish & Chips has branched out of Sai Kung because SK is so inconvenient and this place is much more spacious.
There is more on the menu compared to SK and they serve pies and desserts.
My favourite cheese and onion pastie was sold out so went for chips and a jacket.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Fresh lemonade:
Started off with fresh lemonade which is made of freshly squeezed lemon, water and some syrup.
The sweetness was just right and it was refreshlingly cold.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Jacket potato with two fillings:
For jackets, you get to choose two fillings so I chose the bacon and sausage.
The jacket was buttered so it was fluffy and silky complemented by the tasty bits of bacon and sausages.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Chips:
As usual, I have to have chips!
They tasted great with lots of salt and vinegar.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Taywells mint chocolate icecream:
For dessert I had icecream and the mint chocolate is not green because there is no colouring.
It had a nice mint taste with pieces of dark chocolate in it.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Taywells pistachio icecream:
The pistachio icecream was also good too because the pistachio taste was strong and natrual.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Browine:
The brownie was a bit hard but I hope to see them do fried brownies!
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Will be back soon for the pies!
